Hope Church NYC is excited to partner with Call to Gather, an organization that hosts a variety of creative gatherings in Manhattan.

GATHER THROUGH CATHARTIC POETRY

Gather Artist: Linda Harris Dolan

In a poem, we don’t need to have the answers or know all the pieces of a story. In fact, a poem can help us say things we didn’t have words for, can help us uncover things we didn’t know or acknowledge within ourselves. For this Gather, we’ll explore the world within. Through a guided writing time, we’ll explore seven different movements of the mind—different mental approaches to the same item or event. This gets us out of our usual patterns of thinking and remembering, and also gets us out of the anxiety of “what am I going to write?” We’ll then craft a poem from the phrases we’ve unearthed. We’ll learn how to approach writing in a less direct and less pressured manner, and how to find the poetry that’s already there—in our own voices, in our own minds.
